TASK 5. (0–4) Read the article. Four fragments have been removed from the text. Complete each gap (5.1.–5.4.) with the fragment which fits best and put the appropriate letter (A–E) in each gap. There is one fragment which you do not need to use. COLOUR PSYCHOLOGY Colours have long been believed to affect our behaviour and the way we feel. After all, it’s the first thing we register and use to help assess the things around us, such as whether foods of a certain colour, for example blue, might be poisonous. 5.1. _____ These pass into the part of the brain that rules our hormones and endocrine system, which are instrumental in regulating our moods. Unconsciously, then, our eyes and bodies constantly adapt to these stimuli, influencing our impulses and perceptions. While the scientific study of colour is as old as time, the study of colour’s effects on our psyche is much younger. Even two decades ago, the common perception was that, because our response to colour is subjective, it must also be unpredictable. It was the leading UK colour psychologist Angela Wright who, by studying colour harmonies and the often unconscious thought processes related to them, developed a means of predicting our reactions to colour with remarkable accuracy. 5.2. _____ The key factor is that it is not one colour that triggers our responses, but a combination of shades, dyes or tinges that the human eye can distinguish. For example, a grey sky over a summer cornfield will evoke quite a different emotion than a grey winter sky downtown. To apply colour psychology successfully, Wright also recognized the need to match the individual’s personality with the appropriate tonal colour family. There are four of these – spring, summer, autumn and winter – each reflecting nature’s patterns, and every shade falls into one of these categories. 5.3. _____ Even if very different characters reside together in one house, the right colour palette can ease tensions and help create harmony. Therefore, there are no wrong colours per se, but different colour schemes do prompt different responses. 5.4. _____ It was determined that a bubble-gum pink colour should be used to soothe juvenile delinquents who are behaving violently. When violent juveniles are placed in a small cell coloured in bubble gum pink, they are noted to calm down, stop yelling and usually fall asleep quickly. Colour can affect a person’s behaviour because it can change the way a person feels. It can affect mood, feelings and emotions, as studied in the field of colour psychology. adapted from www.resene.co.nz; www.reference.com Strona 8 z 18 MAD-1A A. It’s called the Colour Affects System and works on two levels: the psychological properties of each of the 11 basic colours and the roles that variations in tones, hues and tints can play in achieving a desired psychological effect. B. There have been incidents of erratic or hostile behaviour during the initial phase of confinement. Despite the exposure to colour, it was not confirmed that the potential for violent or aggressive behaviour as well as low spirits among inmates could be reduced. C. Many businesses, schools, hospitals and public institutions use the guidelines of colour psychology to achieve a desired result. One of the most extreme cases where a colour is used to change a behaviour is at the San Bernardino County Probation Department in California. D. To understand why this happens, we need to look at how colour works. Essentially, when the light reflected from objects strikes the retinas in our eyes, the wavelengths are converted into electrical impulses. E. Once this connection has been made, colour combinations can be created that will help turn homes into spaces that reflect and support the personalities of those living there.

CAN DOGS BE A NEW TARGET AUDIENCE? A. Startled by a sudden bout of barking in your neighbourhood at around seven o’clock last night? Deafened by a collective howl of longing? Manufacturers of dog foods will be hoping so. Last night, ITV broadcast the UK’s first advert ever targeted at dogs, featuring high-pitched sounds that are inaudible to the human ear. Dogs are notoriously immune to visuals on screen, but the advert, with noises above 17,000 Hertz, had been proven to distract dogs enough for them to leave a toy and react to the television. This, in theory, will convince gullible owners that dogs are desperate for the advertised products. B. Your first reaction to this – like mine – might well be to let out a melancholy howl yourself. But it is simply a natural progression, because animals are the new marketing frontier. Adults, in the age of the Internet, are now altogether too canny. And as an audience for adverts, children are strictly regulated and annoyingly prone to switches of allegiance. But dogs – can there be a better example of blind and undying loyalty? They are dream consumers. I’m only surprised that nobody thought of it before. C. Pet owners are, after all, completely crazy when it comes to their animals’ supposed wants. We all know of dogs that apparently “won’t eat” anything but grilled chicken. I visited a friend recently whose house rabbit had no fewer than four kinds of rabbit treats laid out in bowls in front of the fireplace. What happened to the humble carrot? Our increasing anthropomorphism means that even sensible people interpret their own animals as having distinct emotions and desires, which means we have lost all perspective. Mind you, this is written by someone who impulse-bought a device for removing “unsightly chin hair” from a horse last week. Seriously! I had the impression he was feeling bad about it. Strona 10 z 18 MAD-1A D. And the advertising specialists have latched onto pet adverts with the ruthlessness of a terrier with a stick of beef jerky. For years, the pet world was fairly limited in its opportunities for expenditure. You bought food and bedding and perhaps, every few years, a less tatty lead. Now, however, animals have become another outlet for our own rampant consumerism. If sales go up, I predict that within months we will have a whole slew of new animal marketing tricks. E. However, the Kennel Club yesterday expressed concern that some noise-sensitive dogs may be spooked. They confirm that a dog’s needs are actually pretty simple: food, warmth, love, exercise. “Dogs,” a spokesperson said, “cannot always be trusted to know what’s best for them.” As someone who once had to dissuade their dog from a wax-crayon, I can only agree. But based on my own experiment, the Kennel Club needn’t worry too much. I have now played the ad three times to Alfie (a Border Terrier) and he didn’t twitch an eyebrow. However, when I said, “Would you like a sausage? Would you?” it reduced him to hysterics.
